Lamar Odom texas Legends

After taking a leave of absence to attend to his ailing father, Lamar Odom has decided that a game in the D-League will help ease him back into basketball. Odom will play a game for the Mavericks’ affiliate, the Texas Legends, on Saturday. This type of minor league “rehab” start for star players is common in baseball, but marks a new step for the D-League’s role in the NBA.
